Hello, this is Lifton Dermatology.

After performing Ultherapy Prime at an average of more than 4,800 to 7,200 shots a day, it becomes clear that Ultherapy is by far the leading name among ultrasound lifting devices.

In particular, more patients have recently become interested in it since the upgraded version, Ultherapy Prime, was released.

We have organized some of the questions patients frequently ask about Ultherapy Prime.

Q. When do the effects start to show?

This is one of the questions we often receive during consultations.

Many people expect that because it is an upgraded device compared to the original Ultherapy, the effects would appear faster as well.

However, Ultherapy is not a device that delivers immediate results.

Because it uses high-intensity ultrasound to create microscopic thermal coagulation points in the SMAS layer and thereby induces the tissue’s natural healing response to stimulate collagen and elastin production, visible improvement in firmness begins to appear gradually about 4 weeks after treatment.

Q. Does a higher number of Ultherapy Prime shots mean better results?

Many people think that the more shots there are, the better the effect will be, but in fact, what matters is the design suited to the face and precise targeting.

If the number of shots is increased without considering skin condition, thickness, the depth of the fat layer, or the degree of aging, it may only increase irritation and reduce effectiveness.

Therefore, before treatment, the structure must be carefully analyzed, and after setting a personalized plan, the depth and number of shots should be determined in order to expect highly satisfying results.

Does Ultherapy Prime not work for people with thin skin?

In the past, it was said that people with thin skin should avoid Ultherapy, but Ultherapy Prime has significantly reduced this concern through an upgrade to DeepSee technology.

DeepSee is a function that allows the clinician to look at the ultrasound screen in real time during treatment,

so that the structure can be accurately checked and the target layer identified.

Ultherapy Prime has an improved screen size and resolution, making it possible to clearly distinguish the layered structure of thin skin and perform lifting without unnecessary irritation.

What changed from the previous version - deeper and more precise!

From the perspective of the medical staff performing the procedure directly, one major difference is that it allows for more precise and effective treatment.

One of the core technologies of Ultherapy Prime is the real-time ultrasound imaging guidance system.

Because the condition can be monitored in real time during treatment and the energy can be adjusted accordingly, balanced treatment intensity is possible without unnecessary irritation.

This can also help reduce pain and shorten the recovery period.

With the original Ultherapy, it sometimes took more than half a day to return to daily life, and swelling, bruising, or a tight feeling could last for 2 to 3 days.

In the case of Ultherapy Prime, the recovery period has been shortened to the point that daily activities are possible on the same day.

In addition, the depth at which energy is delivered has also become deeper.

Whereas the original version delivered energy only at depths of 1.5 mm, 3.0 mm, and 4.5 mm, Ultherapy Prime can deliver energy down to 8 mm.

Therefore, it can also be applied to people with thicker skin or more advanced signs of aging.

The real secret to increasing satisfaction with Ultherapy Prime is the skill of the medical staff.

Thanks to its excellent technology, Ultherapy Prime allows for precise procedures, but how accurately that technology is interpreted and adjusted depends on the clinician’s hands.

Even the ultrasound image that appears when the transducer is placed on the face can be interpreted differently, and the results can vary depending on the clinician’s experience.

The field of view changes depending on the direction, pressure, and contact of the transducer, and accordingly, the position and depth of the energy also change.

In the end, what matters is finding a clinician who knows how to handle the device accurately.

Lifton Dermatology provides precise lifting plans tailored to each patient based on long-standing experience treating a wide range of cases directly.

We also use only officially certified genuine devices, so you can feel at ease.

In fact, among those who have received lifting treatments here, many return after some time for repeat procedures, which shows the trust and satisfaction built from the results.

To make the most of the precision of Ultherapy Prime,

a plan based on anatomical understanding and clinical experience, along with properly developed technique, is necessary.

We recommend starting Ultherapy Prime by finding a medical team that provides treatment based on thorough diagnosis and consultation of your condition and then designs a customized plan.

Thank you.
